The 1M used the N54 because it was the only engine available on the timeline they were working within. The project was approved late in the E8x lifecycle and needed to be brought to market in two years or so. The M2 will enjoy a normal development cycle and will almost surely receive an M-specific engine. That is to say that you can bet on either S20, S48, S55 or S68.
